West Palm Beach mixes downtown towers, historic bungalows in neighborhoods like El Cid and Flamingo Park, and newer homes to the west. Older homes often have tack strip that has rusted or loosened, so carpet won't stay tight no matter how often it's kicked back into place. We replace failed strip where needed and power-stretch the carpet properly.
Historic homes with older strip
In older homes, the strip along the walls can rust or crumble. Stretching carpet onto bad strip doesn't hold. We check the strip first and replace sections before stretching.
Signs it's time
- Waves or ripples you can see or feel
- Carpet that bunches when furniture moves
- Edges pulling off the wall
- Ripples that come back after being kicked flat
How we do it
- Furniture moved in sections
- Carpet released from the tack strip
- Power-stretched and re-hooked
- Excess trimmed and tucked at the wall
Carpet loosened by new windows
Window and door replacements are common here, and installers often pull carpet back at the walls. If it was put back without being stretched, ripples follow. We re-stretch and re-secure it along the new frames.
